Program features (included in the program fee):

Two months intensive language training at the Goethe Institute in Berlin

Four months study in Vienna: two program-specific courses, and two courses at the University of Vienna

While all Macalester German Studies majors participate in the Macalester German Study Abroad program, an increasing number of German Studies minors as well as German majors and minors from different institutions are participating as well.
